The Royal Palace of Caserta

The Royal Palace of Caserta

The Royal Palace of Caserta is one of the most sumptuous palaces a sovereign has ever built that can compete against and even exceed that of Versailles. Symbol of the Bourbon dynasty in Naples and wanted by King Charles of Bourbon, it is a worthy representative of the palaces built in the eighteenth-century when Naples was the capital of the reign. The visit can not be considered closed without admiring the huge park with two gardens: the French one with the water line and its fountains and the romantic English one with woods and ruins “… it is impossible not to agree that it is a worthy dwelling of the ancient masters of the world … “(Henry Swinburne 1777)
